A court today acquitted Lalmonirhat district BNP president and BNP central organising secretary Asadul Habib Dulu after dismissing the case filed against him in the Rangpur Cyber Tribunal.
Court sources said Asadul Habib Dulu, also a former deputy minister, surrendered at the Cyber Tribunal this noon and applied for bail through 25 lawyers.
After hearing, Judge (District and Sessions Judge) Dr Md Abdul Majeed of the Cyber Tribunal dismissed the case and acquitted him.
